This used to be such an incredible show. Fun, engaging characters, talented actors(only thing that's still true), thoughtful writing, consistent storyline, and paying solid homage to the comics. However, as the show went on the decision to retcon how time/time travel works several times over increasingly confused the plot until eventually the script writers just seemed to give up on making sense all together.
With that, the writing became increasingly lazy, with more and more episodes becoming bad copies/caricatures of highlight episodes from the early seasons.
It's truly tragic to see this shows decline as a fan because it feels like the writers are spitting in the face of us, seemingly writing episodes as if their opinion of us fans is extremely low and condescending.
My advice for anyone wanting to check out the show, do yourself a favour and stop after season 3 at the latest. You don't deserve to have your time wasted on the episodes that come after that, and the showrunners certainly don't deserve your views.
